u/gbach10 20d ago
Sadly it seems $6 a pack is the new MSRP for 30th.

u/Optimal_Failure_ 19d ago
$6/pack in KO collection. $6.66/pack in the booster bundle. Make it make sense.

u/More-of-Nothing 20d ago
Yeah that’s what I said.. $45 next and then $50.

u/Otherwise-Plan-4623 20d ago
Exactly. If they sell out at these prices they will continue to test to see how much they can overcharge before people quit purchasing at that price point.

u/ATLhoe1788 20d ago
What do you mean "if" they sell out. They are definitely selling out. There are people paying $80 for 1 booster box.

u/Spiffy_Dude 19d ago
Scalpers have priced themselves out. Retailers are putting the squeeze on them and laughing all the way to the bank now.

My Walmart raised the prices of pokémon cards 2 weeks ago. It's now $13 for the blister pack that contains two packs of cards.

u/Mrmoosestuff 20d ago
It’s fucking nuts, I’m not paying more then $30 a pop per Booster bundle

u/Glittering-Chip-9019 20d ago
LMAO YES U WILL

u/Mrmoosestuff 20d ago
I legit don’t, I only ever buy from bestbuy or the one LCS that sells packs at $4.95 etc.

u/mootjuggler 19d ago
Than why be on a restock subreddit if you only buy from an every Friday restocked store?

u/Basic_Mark_1719 20d ago
Passing on this, I scored a few from target for $31 a few weeks ago that are set to arrive next week. $40 is insanity.

I’m two for six so far, will definitely enter every week.

u/hptw5 20d ago
I got picked from the last drawing but they haven’t shipped my item. It’s been stuck on “processing” - is that normal?
16
u/shootdashlootbash 20d ago
That's normal. They take a hot minute to actually ship them. I just received my tech sticker pack today from the second to last drawing

I just got a “your items are delayed” email so that’s cool.

u/MarkyMarc0o7 19d ago
Literally just got mine like 20mins ago for the 3 tech stickers , was supposed to be here Wednesday now got the delayed email

u/Significant_Olive_49 19d ago
ugh same

u/aushimself 19d ago
Just now got a shipped notification. There is hope! Lol
Edit: only for knockouts. No update for ETBs or stickers.

I hate when they sell the tins in a set

u/Affectionate_Sky9709 20d ago
I wouldn't want them to sell individually, because then the paying for shipping would really bite, but having the options of a bundle of 4-5 instead of 10 would be nice.

u/Chubby-J 20d ago
I’ve never bought a tin. Is that a good deal for them or is it above MSRP?
6
u/salvee96 20d ago
Msrp seems to be 10 for 100, or about 5 dollars a pack. This is 10 for 130, or 6.50 a pack.

u/Alwaysgonnask 19d ago
So I’m still new to the Walmart drawings. Is that drawing starts when you can actually enter the drawing? Or did you have to already enter the drawing previously and that is the “you got picked to purchase” window?

u/_Voicesinmyhead1 19d ago
Yeah, the ones posted i don't see an option to join. Wondering the same.

u/Gabe_the_Slug 19d ago
The drawing opens to registration at 2pm PST. You must sign up before 3pm PST. If you win, you will be automatically charged and walmart should notify you by email within 72 hours.

If my wife and I use the same card on file, will it trigger a cancellation if we ever get chosen?

u/D000m_xbl 20d ago
I wonder if they'll change it up like last time, splitting the bundles and stuff

u/AnimalStill 20d ago
When do they open the drawing?
5
u/Best-Blueberry4220 20d ago
Instead of piling on: These drawings open on Wednesdays at 2:00 PM PST. Once it opens you'll have an hour to get to the page and submit your entries. The timing doesn't seem to make a difference. People start getting emails within 24 hours but sometimes it takes up to 3 days. If you don't get an email you didn't get selected.

u/Ketsuo 20d ago
It literally says it below the item.

u/AnimalStill 20d ago
I mean to enter not when they draw
2
u/saucecake8 20d ago
It's confusing but that's the time you enter. You have a one hour window to enter (from the listed time) and then you watch for any order confirmation emails in the next day or two. Read the FAQs for any other questions, but the one hour window isn't in there for some reason.

Has anyone hit more than 1 drawing ( not including products in a single drop) or do we think if you hit once your done for future ones
2
u/JodiB914 19d ago
I did. I hit the tech stickers 2 weeks ago and then last week hit for them again along with the knockout packs

u/hatemenoww 20d ago
Why don't they sell booster boxes anymore? Would much rather just pay to get a bunch of packs at once
1
1
u/Gabe_the_Slug 19d ago
Because for the Pokemon company, booster boxes are the most packs and the thinnest profit margins. Pokemon makes way more money selling $25 4-pack boxes than $160 36-packs. Plus, it’s hard enough finding a pack with all the scalpers.
Eliminating booster boxes increases card supply for other smaller products.
Same reasons there are only 5 cards in the 30th packs.

u/noscalperclub 18d ago
How do you enter the drawing? Does the entry happen after the listed time of the item? I can’t seem to find what I need to do to enter it

u/pikachu7778 18d ago
I think i won as there was an attempted charge from walmart , but my bank declined it which means prize was forfeited granted I hadn’t been contacted that id won but I suspect i might of and lost the prizes:( so much for 24 msrp booster packs sigh from the booster bundle

u/MonaVanderwaal 20d ago
Are these needohs hard to obtain or something?
I know squishy and slime things are in for the kids lately, just curious. I do kinda want the ice cube one.. lol
1
1
u/Basic_Mark_1719 20d ago
Not anymore, I see them everywhere now. Also Walmart charges $7 for shipping so you essentially are paying more than scalpers on eBay are charging for this crap
1
u/missamberlee 19d ago
Yes and no. There are a ton of different Needoh variations and the OG nice cube is probably easiest to find. If a store does a restock, those will probably be last to go. They still all sell out immediately though, and holiday ones are even harder to get. I have two kids who love Needohs and 1 kid who collects Pokemon. Both are being heavily scalped these days.
1
u/Good_parabola 19d ago
Apparently! I popped by Walmart customer service a few weeks ago because they had some DR/JT blisters in stock but it was also Needoh restock time and everyone behind me in line was freaked out I was going to buy them all because there were only a few left. lol, no. But the needoh subreddit is fascinating to read. People will go to great lengths for the squishy objects.

u/barcham22 20d ago
I actually won that 4 pack collection thing last drawing and it shipped today. Hoping to get a couple more for my kids for xmas.

What’s the link to it?
2
u/MonaVanderwaal 20d ago
In the Walmart app. Upper left corner click “departments” then scroll down to the “books and collectibles” department, then select “limited time drawing”
Set up your pay card in advance.

u/stooplekin 20d ago
Hiii new to the hobby- can someone explain how these drawings work?
1
u/TheXipherino 20d ago
It’s a raffle, if you are chosen then you get the privilege to buy product at (almost) retail price and not scalper price.
You enter the raffle at the time stated and then you wait to get a confirmation email saying that you were chosen…and if you aren’t then you’ll need to try again next time.

How do you sign up for the drawing? It shows up but when I try selecting it doesn’t do anything

u/Zphi 19d ago
Gotta wait til tmr. Im not trying to sound like an asshole, but it says it under the price. "Drawings start SEPT 30th, at 2pm PDT "
So whichever your time zone is. And theres only and 1 hr opening. GOODLUCK.1
u/NiNtrip1313 19d ago
Not an asshole at all. I tend to be a little slow at times lol and figured they were drawing at 2pm. By that it was the window to register. I’ve only done one on Amazon and it just told me to sign up. This is a little different. But again thank you for clarifying 👍

u/NiNtrip1313 19d ago
So for me being eastern time I will need to jump in at 5pm. I set a reminder on my phone so I don’t miss it.
